October 11, 2018 (MLN): Annual consolidated losses for TRG Pakistan have dropped by a significant margin of almost 30% for the year ended on June 30th 2018, mainly due to improved revenues and reduced Depreciation, amortization and other non-cash costs.
TRG’s Board of Directors meeting took place yesterday, during which the company’s financial earnings for the year were reviewed and compared with the prior year.
According to the financial report issued to the PSX earlier this morning, TRG made 36% higher revenues during the year, leaping up from around Rs.36 billion to Rs.49 billion, a change of Rs.13 billion.
However, since payroll and related costs jumped by Rs.8 billion, acquisition expenses hiked by around Rs.2 billion and other operating costs reported a rise of almost Rs.2 billion, the optimistic contribution made by increased revenues was cancelled out.
Fortunately, reduced depreciation, amortization, other non-cash costs and finance cost provided some relief to the company by bringing down losses from Rs.9.6 billion to Rs.6.7 billion on a year-on-year basis.
The company’s basic and diluted losses per share reduced by 33% as well, slipping from a loss of Rs.8.03 per share to Rs.5.38 per share.
